Advances in Epidemiological Modeling and Control of Viruses

Advances in Epidemiological Modeling and Control of Viruses covers recent and advanced research works in the field of epidemiological modeling, with special emphasis on new strategies to control the occurrence and reoccurrence of viruses. The models included in this book can be used to study the dynamics of different viruses, searching for control measures, and epidemic models under various effects and environments. This book covers different models and methods of modeling, including data-driven approaches. The authors and editors are experienced researchers, and each chapter has been designed to provide readers with leading-edge information on topics discussed.

• Includes models to describe global and local dynamics of various viruses
• Provides readers with control strategies for occurrence and reoccurrence of viruses
• Includes epidemic models under various effects and environments
• Provides readers with a robust set of mathematical tools and techniques for epidemiological modeling
